"What is this?" Ning Yanlan asked, holding the copper coin with great confusion. "It looks similar to the copper coin from before!"
"Can't you tell?" Jiang Yuan wanted to test whether only the Heavenly Eye could identify the fragment of the patterned armor. If it was true that only he could identify it, then he would have a way to make a fortune.
Ning Yanlan turned the copper coin over and over, but finally gave up. "Isn't this just an ordinary copper coin?"
"Activate your spiritual energy and see!" Jiang Yuan reminded him.
“It was used, but it was just an ordinary copper coin!” Ning Yanlan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, “Could it be a hidden weapon!”
Ning Yanlan picked up the copper coin with her index and middle fingers and said with a smile, "Is this how you flick it out like a hidden weapon?"
After saying that, Ning Yanlan really wanted to try out the feel of the hidden weapon.
"Grandma, please don't lose it!" Jiang Yuan quickly grabbed Ning Yanlan's wrist. "This thing is more valuable than my folding iron knife!"
"Really?" Ning Yanlan then stopped throwing it out.
"These copper coins are fragments of a set. You need to collect all twelve to complete the set! For example, the copper coin in your hand is one of the fragments of the Steel Pattern Armor. Once you collect all twelve Steel Pattern Armor fragments, you can have a basic psionic exclusive set!" Jiang Yuan explained.
"A basic psionic set? Is it very powerful?" Ning Yanlan had no concept of these terms.
"A set that can be used with less than 1,000 points of spiritual energy!" Jiang Yuan gave a rough estimate, based on information obtained through the Heavenly Eye's assessment of difficulty, which is generally quite accurate.
"One thousand points?" Ning Yanlan asked in surprise.
"Actually, this copper coin is fundamentally different from the ones we usually see!" Jiang Yuan pointed to the copper coin. "Look at the patterns on it, aren't they similar to those on the Holy Spirit Beast?"
Ning Yanlan nodded.
"Once we collect all twelve armor fragments, they will automatically condense into a complete set of armor using spiritual or physical energy! We should try our best to collect armor fragments now. At the beginning, not many people will collect these useless armor fragments, so we will have more opportunities!" Jiang Yuan said.
“Yes!” Ning Yanlan agreed.
"What about all these things?" Ning Yanlan pointed to a pile of miscellaneous spoils.
"The people of the Heaven and Earth Society can't collect anything good. Even if they do, they've already used it all. Take all of these to the trading area and sell them, and try to exchange them for some useful treasures!" Jiang Yuan said after glancing around and confirming that there were no treasures.
"Alright! Let's go back first, then find a car to go to the city square!" Ning Yanlan quickly packed up all her things.
As expected, the two encountered a monster on the way down to Nan Gui. However, Ning Yanlan not only killed the monster with a small fireball but also startled herself. "Huh, how come my spiritual power has become stronger?"
"Really?" Jiang Yuan asked, feigning ignorance.
"You stinky Jiang Yuan, tell me quickly, did you do something strange to me while I was sleeping!" Ning Yanlan's eyes flashed like lightning; only Jiang Yuan would help her here.
"What a strange thing!" Jiang Yuan exclaimed, both amused and exasperated. "What strange thing could I possibly do?"
"Did you feed me something? Otherwise, how come my spiritual energy increased by four points? Before, I would only increase by two or three points after sleeping all night, but I increased by four points after only sleeping for a little over an hour!" Ning Yanlan looked at Jiang Yuan with a hint of suspicion. "Tell me honestly, did you feed me some kind of elixir or magic pill?"
"I wanted to feed you too! But where would I get such a magic pill!" Jiang Yuan shrugged, taking out a rudimentary Holy Spirit Source. "Actually, it was this thing that helped you!"
“Holy Spirit Source? Impossible. Even if I practice with it all night, my spiritual energy wouldn’t increase by more than four points!” Ning Yanlan immediately denied.
"No, you're doing it wrong!"
"Next time, let's get up at five o'clock, and then we'll all have some fun together!"
Jiang Yuan smiled maliciously at Ning Yanlan.
"Hey, you! Be serious!" Ning Yanlan, with her fiery temper, elbowed him in the chest.
"Oh!" Jiang Yuan rubbed his sore muscles, then honestly said, "Okay, actually, we need to find a high point when the Golden Gate revives at five o'clock, and then have a certain gifted man hold the Holy Spirit Source. After that, the Holy Spirit Source will experience a short period of high energy, and the concentration of spiritual energy inside will increase many times over!"
"Wait, a gifted man?" Ning Yanlan grasped the key point.
"It's actually me!" Jiang Yuan laughed heartily.
"I didn't see any talent, but I certainly saw a lot of narcissism!" Ning Yanlan mocked deliberately.
"I'm so heartbroken!" Jiang Yuan feigned a sorrowful expression. "I painstakingly protected you for an hour, and you actually called me narcissistic!"
"Tch, it's not like I'm protecting you for a lifetime!" Ning Yanlan muttered, stomping her foot on the haystack. "Unless it's for a lifetime, then I'll say you're narcissistic!"
Jiang Yuan was overjoyed. Was this a confession to him?
Suddenly, a white stick hit him, and Jiang Yuan was startled, grabbing Ning Yanlan and retreating.
"What is that?!" Jiang Yuan looked down at what had attacked him and saw a tender white bamboo shoot lying on the ground.
"Look there!" Ning Yanlan's voice was filled with excitement, and a hint of fondness.
Jiang Yuan had already drawn his sword. He thought he had encountered a blind monster and was about to kill it to get a Holy Spirit Stone for himself. But when he looked up in the direction Ning Yanlan was pointing, he froze.
A giant panda, not yet fully grown, sat on an osmanthus tree, watching the two of them with a mocking expression. It was this very panda that had just thrown the bamboo shoot.
"So cute!" Ning Yanlan's eyes widened. Giant pandas are creatures born to be adorable.
"Don't go!" Jiang Yuan knew that giant pandas were already extremely powerful beasts, and with the changes in the world, once they were awakened, their attack power would be far beyond that of ordinary monsters.
